Abstract
The invention relates to a connection element for communications and data technology, comprising a housing and connection contacts, which are arranged in the housing, wherein the housing has electrically and/or magnetically conductive parts, wherein the surface of the housing is made completely of electrically and/or magnetically nonconductive material, and to a method for producing a connection element.
Description
- The invention relates to a connecting element for communication and data technology, comprising a housing and connecting contacts which are arranged in the housing, and to a method for production of a connecting element.
- Connecting elements such as these for telecommunication and data technology are, for example, female connectors and male connectors to which the conductors in a cable can be connected. As transmission rates increase, as in the case of CAT6 or 10 Gbit/s Ethernet, the requirements for the connecting elements are also becoming more stringent. In particular, the so-called “alien cross talk” between adjacent connecting elements in this case has negative effects on the transmission behavior.
- DE 196 04 564 C1 discloses a connecting socket for a data network, having a metallic housing lower part which has a stand surface, which is designed for mounting flat on a wall, having a metallic housing upper part and having a circuit board which is enclosed between the housing upper part and the housing lower part and is fitted with at least one female data connector and a plurality of wire connecting terminals, to which the individual conductors in a multicore data cable can be connected. In this case, a ground connection to the board is produced via the metallic lower part, and can then be used, for example, to connect the cable shield to the housing ground. A covering plastic cap is then placed over the housing upper part and the housing lower part.
- However, unshielded connecting elements are preferred in some cases, for various reasons.
- The invention is thus based on the technical problem of providing a connecting element for unshielded applications in telecommunication and data technology, which has a better transmission behavior at high transmission rates.
- The technical problem is solved by the subject matter of the features of
claim - For this purpose, the connection element for communication and data technology comprises a housing and connecting contacts which are arranged in the housing, in which the housing has electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable parts, with the surface of the housing being composed entirely of electrically non-conductive and/or magnetically non-permeable material. This means that the electrically conductive parts and/or magnetically permeable parts effectively suppress interference fields from the exterior and the radiated emission of interference radiation, while at the same time, however, avoiding undesirable coupling between adjacent housings. Furthermore, this also prevents electrical and/or magnetic shorts between the housing and the connecting contacts which are arranged in the housing. It should be noted that magnetically non-permeable means that the surface has low relative permeability, which is not much greater than unity.
- In one preferred embodiment, the housing is composed of a non-conductive material, preferably plastic, into which metal parts and/or ferrites are introduced. The metal parts may in this case be extrusion coated, or else may be inserted into the housing retrospectively. The ferrites are preferably introduced into the plastic as a filling. In addition to the metal parts, other highly conductive materials such as graphite or metallized plastic particles can also be used. The process of filling with particles during spraying normally results in an electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable surface so that a cover is then required here, for example with a covering lacquer, as will be described for other embodiments in the following text.
- In a further preferred embodiment, the housing is formed from metal, to which an electrically insulating lacquer covering or a covering lacquer is applied. The housing may also be formed from two or more parts, in which case one part may be composed of metal and another part of plastic. The housing or a housing part may likewise be composed of ferrite material, which then has a lacquer covering or a covering lacquer.
- In a further preferred embodiment, the housing is composed of a preferably non-conductive plastic, which has a metal and/or ferrite coating in places, to which an electrically insulating and/or magnetically non-permeable lacquer covering or covering lacquer is applied. The coating may be sprayed on, for example as a conductive lacquer, or may be applied electrochemically or by vacuum plating. By way of example, the ferrite coating may be in the form of a wound strip.
- In a further preferred embodiment, the housing is sprayed from two plastics, in which case the housing is preferably also composed of polycarbonate and ABS. ABS can be electroplated considerably more easily than polycarbonate. In this case, the metallization is preferably applied to the plastic by means of electroplating, since the resistance values which can be achieved in this way are lower than that which can be achieved by means of the vacuum plating or similar methods.
- In one preferred embodiment, the connecting element is in the form of a female connector or male connector, in particular in the form of an RJ45 female connector or male connector.
- In one alternative embodiment, the connecting element for communication and data technology comprises a housing and connecting contacts which are arranged in the housing, in which the housing is electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable at least in places on the surface, or has an electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable coating at least in places, with both the inner surface and the outer surface of the housing being electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable in places, or having an electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable coating, with at least the electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable areas on the outer surface being coated with an electrically non-conductive and/or magnetically non-permeable covering lacquer. Once again, this results in the electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable parts effectively suppressing interference fields from the exterior and the radiated emission of interference radiation, while at the same time, however, avoiding undesirable coupling between adjacent housings. In this case, the inner surface of the housing need not be covered, or need not be completely covered, provided that other measures are taken to ensure the avoidance of undesirable couplings or shorts. On the other hand, however, this embodiment allows the utilization of desired couplings between the contacts and the magnetically permeable and/or electrically conductive areas on the inner surface of the housing, in order to influence the transmission behavior in this way. In this case, it should be clarified that the wording that the housing is electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable in places on the surface, relates to areas, that is to say there are at least subareas which are electrically conductive and/or magnetically permeable. The outer surface is formed by those surfaces which form the external contour of the housing when the latter is in its assembled state, so that the surfaces which define the holder for the plug connector thus in their own right include the inner surface, although these are also preferably coated with the covering lacquer. With regard to the rest of the design, reference can otherwise be made in full to the previous statements, in particular the embodiments described in the dependent claims.

FIG. 1 shows an exploded illustration of an RJ45female connector 1, which comprises afirst housing part 2 and asecond housing part 3. Furthermore, the RJ45female connector 1 comprises a printed circuit board 4 on which eight insulation-displacement terminal contacts 5 and eight spring orRF contacts 6 are arranged. The insulation-displacement terminal contacts 5 are in this case arranged in pairs. Some of thespring contacts 6 are bent with respect to one another, thus resulting in improved close crosstalk between thespring contacts 6. In the assembled state, the insulation-displacement terminal contacts 5 are arranged betweenclamping ribs 7 on thefirst housing part 2. In a corresponding manner, thespring contacts 6 project into aholder 8 in thesecond housing part 3, so that contact can be made with them by means of an RJ45 male connector, which is not illustrated. Thefirst housing part 2 and thesecond housing part 3 are latched to one another, with thelatching tabs 9 on thefirst housing part 2 latching into thelatching holders 10 in thesecond housing part 3. The RJ45female connector 1 can then be latched, for example, to a front panel by means of twolatching tabs 11 and alatching clip 12. -
FIG. 2 shows a plan view of thefirst housing part 2, with the shaded areas representing an electricallyconductive coating 13 while, in contrast, the white areas are designed to be electrically non-conductive. In this case, in particular, those parts in the immediate vicinity of the insulation-displacement terminal contacts are electrically non-conductive. In the case of thethick clamping ribs 7, the edge areas are in this case electrically non-conductive, with the central areas having the electricallyconductive coating 13. This can also be seen inFIGS. 3 and 4 , which show that the electrically conductive and electrically non-conductive areas also extend over the side areas. The electricallyconductive coating 13 may, for example, be formed by a conductive lacquer which is sprayed onto thehousing part 2, or is applied in some other way, with thehousing part 2 itself being composed of an electrically non-conductive plastic. Alternatively, thecoating 13 can be applied by electroplating or vacuum plating. It should also be noted that, as can be seen fromFIG. 2 , the distance between two insulation-displacement terminal contacts 5 of one pair is less than the distance between insulation-displacement terminal contacts 5 of different pairs, which reduces the close crosstalk. Thelower face 14 of thefirst housing part 2, from which the insulation-displacement terminal contacts 5 are also introduced, does not have any electricallyconductive coating 13, apart from thereset areas 15, as can be seen inFIG. 5 . -
FIGS. 6 to 9 now show the next method step, in which an electricallynon-conductive covering lacquer 18 is applied to the upper face 16 and to theside parts 17 of thehousing part 2, as is illustrated in shaded form inFIGS. 6 to 9 . Since thelower face 14 does not have any electricallyconductive coating 13, no coveringlacquer 18 is required. However, there is no problem if coveringlacquer 18 nevertheless reaches thelower face 14, provided only that the guides in thechambers 19 for the insulation-displacement terminal contacts are not disturbed. - The method for the
second housing part 3 is illustrated in a corresponding manner inFIGS. 10 and 11 as well asFIGS. 12 to 14 . In this case,FIGS. 10 and 11 once again show the electricallyconductive coating 13 in shaded form. As can be seen inFIG. 10 , the area of theholder 8 has no electricallyconductive coating 13. Theupper face 20 is preferably excluded from the electrically conductive coating over a thickness d of, for example, 0.3 to 0.7 μm. Thelower area 21 as well as the latching hooks 12 are likewise free of the electricallyconductive coating 13. A coveringlacquer 18 is then applied again, with the area of theholder 8 on theupper face 20 being excluded from the coveringlacquer 18. Thelower face 22 is likewise free of coveringlacquer 18, in whichcase edge areas 23 can be excluded from this, that is to say they may have coveringlacquer 18.
